Texas Rally for Life 2019
Knights of Columbus were front and center at the Texas Rally for Life 2019. The 4th degree along with Bishop Joe Vasquez led the march through the streets of Austin to the steps of the State Capitol. The Knights were recognized for their dedication to Pro-Life causes including their purchases of sonogram machines.

Who is Eligible?
An applicant must be a Knight of Columbus member in good standing of a council located in Texas, his wife, son or daughter.
